Vegetarian Star

Kevin Nealon has been a vegetarian for years and remembers the days when eating so at a restaurant meant french fries and salad. Thankfully, much has changed.

“It’s definitely become easier,” said Nealon. “Restaurants are finally getting their act together and offering vegetarian courses. Some of the food tastes just like meat, too; it’s brilliant.”

Jon Fitch can be added to the list of mostly vegetarian celebrities who’ve been mislead about the health benefits of adding meat to your diet.

The MMA fighter stated he has started to occasionally add animal products because it’s difficult to gain weight without them.

“I found out that going 100% vegan was good for me, but I was losing too much weight,” Fitch told Bloody Elbow. “I was at 183 pounds, walk-around weight, and that’s just too light for me. I don’t have enough mass.”

To say that Mario Batali is a fan of cherries is perhaps an understatement.

Ask him how he likes to prepare the tart fruit and you’ll get more answers than a fruit salad.

“I’ll take some Michigan cherries and I’ll dress them with a little extra-virgin olive oil, some chopped jalapeños, a little cilantro, and some red wine vinegar. Suddenly, I’ll have something that almost behaves like a pickle relish. I’ll put it on my sandwiches. I’ll serve it with beans and rice. I’ll put it on top of my pizza. I’ll eat it like a salad just out of the refrigerator.”

Amanda Cohen‘s interview with the New York Daily News times perfectly with the release of her cookbook, Dirt Candy: A Cookbook: Flavor-Forward Food from the Upstart New York City Vegetarian Restaurant.

Cohen gave readers a preview of some of the recipes they’ll find in the cookbook bearing the same name as her New York vegetable restaurant like hush puppies with maple butter and kimchi doughnuts.

“I love cookbooks and have hundreds at home, but I wanted to make one that I would be so excited to buy, take home and read, and not just because it was from a certain restaurant,” Cohen said.

In the letter, Simmons not only addresses the issue of Gaga wearing fur, but the feud between her and PETA, emphasizing that while he supports the group, his criticism is a that of “gentler” kind than the animal rights organization.

Joss Stone is normally a healthy vegetarian, but admits she sometimes packs on a few extra pounds here and there.

Blame it on the non-vegan food on tour.

“In Europe, all they want to give you is bread and cheese, bread and cheese, bread and cheese” Stone said.

“Thank God I can sing [for a living] because it really doesn’t matter how thin I am,” Joss explained to US publication Shape magazine. “It’s irrelevant! That’s what I think when I feel that I’ve put on weight. I quickly remind myself, I’m not a model. That’s not important.”
